county. these are all of the storm reports that we had around the region and it ranged from the gusty winds to trees down, to hail as you can see and continuing the flooding issues. most of the flooding reports came from montgomery county and the baltimore area. the last one we got was about eight:30 around the brookville area toward the brighten area with one to two feet of florida continuing to cross the road. and that was in the 3600 block ever brook vivment we're very happy that our teisha lewis was in the brookville area. are they at least able to get a portion of the road open, teisha. >>reporter: the good news is that the water has subsided. the bad news is that a lot of work lies ahead here in brook vivment what i can tell you is that crews are out here and will remain out here. they're working on this market street bridge and also market street road remains closed after there was flash flooding. but it really impacted the

12:34 am
and market street. the latter again remains closed tonight. police are passing by every now and then just monitoring the situation, monitoring the roadway and also any remaining flood waters. brookville is filled with areas that are ripe for flash flooding. we're talking about hills and also narrow roadways and behind me across the way is a creek. we spoke with one resident who described tonight's weather conditions and also the heavy downpour as a gully washer. that's what she had to say. teisha lewis, fox5 local news. >> now to one of the most unusual stories we've reported on in a while. a rockville man is accused of drawing and buying blood from dozens of people. he's now without a license in the district. fox5's lauren demarco in the district with more. >>reporter:
12:35 am
is the word. there are so many questions, the biggest of which is why, why would this guy be collecting people's blood? he is 43 year old wen. he was here today at d.c. superior court. he pleaded not guilty. our camera was rolling as he came out and ran from reporters. according to charging documents around 2 p.m. yesterday, a police officer overheard people saying that they were getting paid $30 each to give blood inside of an apartment at 7p street southwest. that's public housing. not far from nats park. a woman inside the apartment told police it was her unit and she was participating as part of a work study under the direction of wenwen told officers he works for a company called boston bio source an was authorized to be drawing blood from citizens, but the d.c. department of health says he is not a licensed medical official in the district and the apartment building is not clearly
12:36 am
with officers. he said he just met wen this morning. i'm not sure. i got to audit committee to him, though. does he have a medical license of any kind that you know of. >> not offhand. i don't know. he seems like a very nice guy. he was very easy to talk to. we just have to wait and see what happens with respect to the outcome of the case. what did you see exactly in. >> it was a long line. i don't know why they wanted people's blood. i was weird to me, too. i didn't know what was going on, too. i thought it was a doctor or something that was doing it. i think they saying it was a regular dude, so i don't know. >> officers say that wen told them that he collected blood from about 40 people over tuesday and wednesday. he also had a log listing more than 200 other names and police recognized some of those people at
12:37 am
community. as far as that company that wen said that he works boston bio source, we looked into it they are a company on their website they say they provide specimens, blood, plasma and tissue, things like that for research. police were not able to contact anyone from that company as far as the charging documents state. we tried to call them. i left voice male. i have not heard back. as far as wen he is live in court next month. lauren demarco, fox5 local news. >> to prince george's county now, neighbors are questioning the safety t of a stretch of roadway where a local teen died in a crash. normal white lost control of his car tuesday and slammed into a tree. neighbors say it is not the first deadly accident. marina maracco is live in clinton tonight. >>reporter: it's not, shawn. to give you some context in the past four years there have been a tote l a of four \fate\faith l al accidents including tuesday's.

ago coming this way, a truck flipped over and i drove past and he was trying to bank to get out. i just made a u-turn and called the police. complaining about that road and for years nothing was done about it. so a 17 year old man who had a promising future had to die in order for you to say, okay, well, let's take a look at this road and see what's really going on with the road. i want to know why it took so long. >> what i think they're going to end up doing is put a speed camera right here or something about like that because the city is about money. they don't want to spend no money to fix it. they want money to go back into their pockets. they'll put a speed camera here to make people slow down and that will help, but that's not going to help in the long run. there will be more accidents. somebody is going to crash again. >> tonight we caught up with a council member for this district. that's councilman mel
